  1. Go through the LabVIEW tutorials.
  2. Design your front panel.
  3. Start coding.  For such a simple app, I would recommend a while loop with a shift register to hold the calculator's state, and an event structure to handle user input.  You might want to consider a state machine pattern (where one of the states is to wait for user input (the event structure)).  However I think that's an unnecessary complication.
  4. If you get stuck, or can't get something to work, post here.  Be sure to describe precisely what the problem is an include the actual VI(s), not a picture.

School project or not, this is an excellent exercise to learn LabVIEW basics with.  Don't sell yourself short by asking someone to do it for you.  Go ahead, take your brain for a jog around the block.  It won't hurt.  Much.
